For students like me who use ChatGPT to understand new concepts, it is hard to revisit a very helpful old message. I could save it elsewhere, but the text is always long and heavily formatted. If anything, having a small option to ‘star’ conversations within a chat/globally would be a convenient addition.
It’s most useful when you use one long chat (I do it since a new chat changes the flow and tone of its answers). Having a save message/star feature and being able to look at them quickly keeps me in the app. I don’t need to switch apps or resort to pen and paper.
For example, I had a few C++ concepts explained to me. I know nothing much, and the explanation felt helpful, I kept taking screenshots and sending them to my phone. I ended up not looking much at the screenshots because I couldn’t scroll up and down to check the context surrounding it.
I think it will be heavily useful for locating messages quickly. In fact, I was actually surprised there was no such option anywhere in the interface.
Also, dear OpenAI team, thanks for your hard work!
